National Need/ Distinct Need Page 6, 25, 26 of approval document is replaced with Te Hono o Te Kahurangi. Pātai: If Māori qualifications have to have an English equivalent qualification name, do English qualifications have to have a Māori equivalent qualification name? Answer: No. Current MM EQA qualifications under TRoQ development : Māori Governance Ngā Toi Hauora Tākaro 3 Tikanga Māori Review Plan (Merepaea Manukau) 3.1 Please refer to Book 1 content highlighted in yellow is to be amended, and where it says Te Reo Māori it will be replaced with Tikanga Māori. Current Risks: In terms of GG membership, there is no representation around waka, rongoa and community/ iwi. Due to financial restrictions, how will small entities contribute to this review? Or how will we receive their need and voice? Discussion points: What connection does waka and Rongoa qualifications have within this review? Do they belong in the Tikanga Māori review or does this create a duplication of qualification with other reviews? Discussion reply from TWoA: Due to the fact that the above qualifications are 1

3 based on Tikanga they have been included within this review. Providers indicate where their programme sits within each review.. How do you create mainstream curriculum that have a genuine interest in tikanga and Māoritanga? How do you nurture Māori development? 4 Needs Analysis (Tunui Associates - Jeanne Kerr) How much investment is going into a smart curriculum design in Aotearoa, New Zealand? 4.1 Overview of the needs analysis, please refer to book 2. 5 Ngā Mātāpono Discussion Points: Considered needs to be given to the change in TEC funding and credit programmes. TES is out for consultation and the group should consider the following: In relation to our work and the TES, we salute the inclusion of Tikanga beside Te Reo as a valid application. We also note some concern that the potential for our people, at a young age, to pathway in to non tikanga and non Reo programmes in search of employment means we have a generation growing up whose cultural identity is weak. We would want those people, regardless of the qualification they got, to continue to have access in their lifetime, to a cultural education that befits this generation and the next one. After 4 years student allowance and a 7 EFT draw down, the student must fund themselves. This will shape the development of the Tikanga Māori Review. Hauora category which currently covers Rongoā to be renamed due to the clash with the Hauora TRoQ. Challenges found with the framework as it is concerned about what is and not what will be. We need to create a framework that is consistent and future proof. Possible naming agencies: Mauri, Atua or Whare. How can we be connected and yet maintain specificity? Recommendations: Key points to consider when creating the qualifications: Self-actualisation where individuals or groups become self-actualised Agency or Rangatiratanga develop a sense of control of yourself and others Future proof framework Whakapapa ideas, connected, clear and organised Off shore access - Australia Hoa haere iwi input, we were iwi before we were institutions or institutionalised. 5.1 The group drafted ngā mātāpono to reflect on for the next day: Practice applied knowledge in practice is the highest form of knowledge ISE-ICE Rangatiratanga/ Independent Learner - Advancement of individual, community, 2
